Description
During product development of the Relief Insert® foot-positioning orthosis, the focus was on immediate use for secure and time-saving positioning in the operating theatre as well as on practical and simple upgrading to a mobile version with a post-operative shoe.
The 90° positioning orthosis is for general use in conservative and postoperative therapy of calf, ankle and foot injuries. Three elasticated and freely positionable hook and loop fasteners and a forefoot strap optimally fix the foot in the orthosis. The most convincing aspect is the simple and time-saving handling and the option of upgrading the system in post-operative follow-up treatment. Once the wound dressing has been applied in the operating theatre, the foot positioning orthosis is applied and fixed with elastic webbing straps. Time-consuming plastering or modelling of a splint is a thing of the past and costly operating theatre time is significantly reduced.

Testimonials
„To ensure optimal surgical results, we use the Relief Insert® Walker 2.0 (without shoe) for positioning immediately after the operation. If the patient can be mobilised, it is only necessary to put on the sectoral off-loading shoe. The calf section adjusts itself to the patient’s circumference during closure. The walker fits perfectly and thus prevents rotational movements in the ankle joint. This is a great advantage especially for care in hospitals and home visits, because no additional tools are necessary.“
